As a result, IWG has no financial debt which matures before
November 2025. As previously announced, pro-forma net financial
debt at 31 March 2023 was GBP683m.
The initial acquisition bridge of GBP330m in March 2023 has been
reduced by GBP205m to GBP125m through cashflow generation and is
now extinguished entirely.
Apart from the sizing and tenor described above, no material
terms, such as pricing, of the RCF have changed.
Outlook
The Company remains cautiously optimistic for the remainder of
2023, and despite the strengthening of Sterling, management has not
changed its financial expectations for FY 2023.
IWG and Worka continue to trade well. IWG remains committed to
reducing its ownership stake in Worka in the medium term.
The Company is well-positioned to continue to take advantage of
future growth, its capital-light strategy and year to date has made
improvements on all core KPIs since December 2022.
IWG is looking forward to making its H1 2023 results
announcement on 8 August 2023.
